It’d be akin to China funding and arming an independence movement in Texas.
No, it would be akin to China funding and arming the US if England decided to say “Hey, you used to be English! We think you still are. We plan to come over there and replace your government. Also, we’re murdering our own citizens if they strongly disagree with this policy.”
Taiwan is literally a province of China as even US acknowledges. The SUPER bad look is to try and justify the interference by burger empire in other countries.
I talk to people there everyday. Taiwan doesn’t WANT to be a province of China and anyone who thinks it should be is a dick (and probably a sock puppet for the Chinese Communist Party - it’s gonna be pretty hard to keep doing your job here without looking just like one of those). End of discussion.
Wait till you find out about the concept of selection bias.
Meanwhile, ideas don’t form in a vacuum. US had political capture of Taiwan for many decades drowning it in its propaganda. US interference in Taiwan politics and media is very well documented. US has poured countless millions into shaping the opinions of the people in Taiwan through orgs like NED, it directly grooms US politicians such as Tsai Ing-Wen. This is what’s known as cultural hegemony.

Are you gonna deny that? It’s a SUPER bad look.

So yea, end of discussion. You’re a peddler of imperialism and you should be ashamed of yourself.
